A SEALSklN COAT.
The Trouble that a Cleveland Man
Has Become Involved in.


The following dispatch was received
the other night from Washington, says
the Cleveland Leader: On the Slh of the
present month A. Goldsoll, of Cleveland,
o., returned from trip to Europe, ar
irving at the port of New York by the
steamship Trave of the North German
Lloyd line. He carried on his arm n
sealskin coat. After the custom officer
had examined the baggage OF some of
Goldsolps fellow-passsengerss Goldsoll
threw down his sealskin coat upon the
same and waited for his own baggage to
be inspected. The sealskin was dis
covered by one of the officials. That's
all right, that's mine,' quickly spoke up
Goldsoll. But they did not believe him,
and at once siezed upon the coat. Gold.
soil claimed that he bought it in
this country, and as he went over
to Europe in the cold weather he
had worn it, Even this did not satisfy
the officers. and they refused to allow the
garment to pass without the customary
duty. Then Goldsoll filed with the sec
retary of the treasury protest against
the action taken in contiscating the coat,
alleging that he had bought it in London
for $40, and had imported il for his per-
sonal use. Assistant Secretary Maynard
took charge of the case, and to-day sent
his decision to the collector al New York.
TeUeCtS III MS ltttcI ocNclSly upOil
Goldsoll's action, and in view Of the lat
| ter's stories, etc, is of the opinion that
an effort was being made to avoid paying
| duty upon an article that was clearly Ii
able. He added that he would
leave the whole matter dis
| cretionary to the collector as to wha,
should be done, saying in effect that the
| full duty should be assessed and fine
| added to it for the government. He say
| that if Goldsoll had not carried the Goa
as he did, and then thrown II down upor
the baggage which had been examined
nothing would have been thought of tn,
matter, and he would have been allowed
to pass with it and no questions asked.

Roller Rink Revived.

The Custer Roller Rink, which, like
the Kinks of other places in and out of
the Hills, had long since fallen into
disuse, has again become the popular
resort for the patrons of this pleasing
exercise on wheels. A large audience
witnessed the two mile race on Satur-
day night between Frank Walsh and
Allen Geer, two Custer experts Of local
fame, who fairly split the air in their
surprising velocity. The race was
closely contested, Walsh winning by
barely half a lap. Time eleven minutes.
Quadrilles on wheels were INDUCED in
to a late hour, music being dispensed by
a local band.
The large number Of patrons, and
their apparent enjoyment of the &C.
casion. confirms us in the belief that the
skating fever is again fairly on.

More Buildings Required.

At no period in the past ten years OF
Clusters history has the demand for
buildings for habitation and business
purposes been so great as during the
past six months. The question, where
can I get a house p is daily heard, and
by reason of there being none vacant,
the question can only be answered, no
where in Custer.
1t is an apparent fact that Custer
differs with all other Black Hills towns
in being absolutely deficient in the
number of buildings necessary to meet
her requirements, a situation foretold
by the CHRONICLE nearly a year ago,
when the matter Of the erection of ad-
ditional buildings was strongly urged.
When the fact of a number of families
being compelled to their in
tention of residing here in consequence
of being unable to find u suitable house
and when men desiring to establish
themselves in business have been forced
to abandon their intention by reason OF
there being nc suitable building obtain,
able, it becomes very evident that there
is an urgent necessity for more build
ings, and while we do not desire to SEE
a building boom here which Shall ex,
coed the actual demand, we are disposed
to encourage The erection Of a sufficient
number of buildings to meet the rapidly
increasing wants Of the town.

Glowing Ridicule.

The Custer CHRONICLE is inclined TO
ridicule most any and everything that
savors of "A glow from any portion of the
valleys in this county outside of the
Hills. U~njustly it remarks sarcastically
that the Hermosa Pilots weather report
as made daily and published weekly in
that paper, is exaggerated as to height
OF the temperature during last week.
The report is creditablc to that paper
and Judging from our own weather dur
ing the same period was absolutely cor
rect regardless Of sneers and the Jealous
feeling of the CHRONICLE man.-News.
The News is too voluminous in its
charge of ridicule, when it accuses us OF
directing the same at everything that
savors of a glow" etc, as we are quite
positive that all references to glowing
noses were religiously ignored.

Semi Identical,

Any person with half an eye of obser-
of Buffalo Gap and Custer are to a great
degree identical. All that goes to make
Buffalo Gap a prosperous and enterpris-
ing city does not necessarily cause the
same growth and prosperity Of Custer,
but nothing in the way of industry that
is of advantage to Custer but what will
accrue the same advantage to the Gap.
The same applies to Hot Springs and all
the Southern Hills. Buffalo Gap is the
gateway by which these points must be
reached by stage until that time when
the railways carry passengers and
freight to those points without transfer.
